Listen to the Morbidly Wistful New Single from Brooklyn's Nicholas Nicholas

Nicholas Nicholas' new single is a triumph of morning dew and melodrama.

In addition to playing in Heavenly Beat's live band and collaborating with Steve Sobs, Brooklyn songwriter Chris Masullo makes narcotized new wave as Nicholas Nicholas. His recently-released single "Meet Me in the Park" is very promising, a triumph of morning dew and melodrama, pitched-down vocal layers and a morbidly wistful guitar tone. The little details he chooses to highlight in the lyrics resonate strongly: you're like a wolf reading Jack London, he observes, it doesn't make any sense in my brain/ you just rip it to shreds. The track is taken from his forthcoming second full-length; hopefully that record is full of perfectly isolated moments just like this one.
